Not true. Comes down to your tenancy agreement.
There was clauses in law surrounding fixing baby gates, earthquake proofing furniture by screwing to wall, minor alterations etc.
I have in the past when I was renting read the tenancy agreement that said I could screw into the wall if made good before moving out.
I find it completely reasonable to put several screws into the rafters or inside a cupboard that easy very easy to patch the holes and paint the cupboard. Or get a painter in before you leave to do the patchwork if that's what the tenancy agreement states (professional work)
